This is one of 5 wine silos painted by local street artists for the Cooperative of Nissan Lez Enserune. This is such a fantastic idea, quite similar to the Silo Art Trail in Australia. I can’t wait for other wine cellars around the region and across France to do the same.
Extraxted from the company’s website: “Nissan-Lez Ensérune cellar got a facelift last year and is now positioned as a flagship site for wine tourism. Vignerons Pays d´Ensérune has decided to go further and make its place an original and atypical place. So, in partnership with the Line Up association in Montpellier, they set up this crazy project to repaint 5 wine vats 8 meters high by 5 street artists from the region.
This collaboration has many objectives: beautifying the site, increasing the visibility of the site from the road, giving a modern image of the cooperative, attracting a new, younger clientele and, ultimately, being part of a tourist circuit on the street art in cooperatives.”
